It's time for another challenge over at Fussy and Fancy and the new theme is VINTAGE. Don't you just love all of the vintage stamps and digi's out at the moment? This was a relatively new style to me when I made it, and I hadn't got any stamps, so I went with papers, dies, ribbon and distressing instead.

I made this for a friends wedding and they had a vintage theme to their day so this fitted in quite well. I do like to match my cards to the event, don't you? I did personalise it a bit more than in the pictures below but obviously just wanted to show the basic project.

If you'd like to make an exploding box, I have a tutorial herewith pictorial andwritten instructions. I'd love to get your feedback and see your finished projects.

Good morning crafters, I hope you're all enjoying your long weekend. Hope you all got loads of Easter eggs? Mark took me out for a meal last night instead of buying me an Easter egg, you can't argue with that can you?

It's the first of the month so that means only one thing! It's time for a new challenge over at the Clarity Stamp Challenge. The theme for our second challenge is "IN THE GARDEN" which is where I know a lot of us wish we could be. I keep looking out of the window at our garden thinking it needs a good old tidy up but then it starts snowing and I think better of it. Oh well one day soon hopefully!

Anyway back to the challenge and here's my inspirational card for the challenge to get your creativity going and if this isn't enough the rest of the design team have loads more ideas for you too. You could be in with a chance of winning a £50 Clarity Stamp gift voucher. It's a pity I can't enter myself!!

I love creating scenes with my stamps and the sets are ideal for these types of cards

Welcome to my crafty world, the place where I go to get away from it all and indulge myself! Some people go for chocolate or wine, but with me it's more papers, stamps and an inky mess. I hope you'll find something inspirational on your trip around my blog and even better if you want to come back for more.
xx Happy crafting and glittery hugs xx
